Could the Commissioner share with me how the protocols have changed recently with regard to the publishing of the images of street prostitutes on the internet?

You talked about levers and about your optimism about new flexibility and new innovative ways of delivering housing in the future. I have seen somewhere that tax incremental financing (TIF) is at last being considered. Could you shed any light on this? What form of TIF would it be and how would you use it to help social housing?

On the subject that Mike was pursuing about structure and powers, what thoughts have you got around devolving or increasing the powers of the Assembly around scrutiny in the new world?

Last week it was announced that the Office for Tenants and Social Landlords, otherwise known as Tenant Services Authority (TSA), was to be devolved and no longer a public body. I am just wondering in the context of housing devolution in London where all these regulatory powers will be going.

Richard, a question for you. Would you not agree, following on from that debate you just had, that inflexible percentage targets are indeed a tired and lazy analysis of the needs of our residents?

Could you, Mr Blakeway, promise me not to carry anything over from the last administration with regard to housing? Could you promise three things really: first of all, could you promise not to disappoint Londoners with oversold targets that are unachievable? Could you promise me not to raise the aspirations of Londoners and then dash those hopes and blame someone else? Could you also promise not to build a home for somebody in housing need but actually deliver a rabbit hutch? So in short, can you assure me that the strategies will be realistic, achievable and honest, which would be...

Could I ask particularly about the efficiency in saving lives, which is something I welcome, as the Chairman said. What is the view of the two of you on what the Government should be doing about much more rigorous and widespread use of sprinklers, for example? The other thing I wanted to ask you about is timber framed buildings, which has been another bone of contention in the whole area in recent years. What are your views on that?

What efforts have you made, personally, or the Mayor, to engage with the Fire Brigades Union (FBU) to avert a very damaging industrial action over proposed changes to the shift patterns?

• Question by: James Cleverly
• Meeting date: 08 September 2010

Chairman, I do not imagine anyone would pretend that you have had the best of relationships with the FBU but there are a number of people on LFEPA who have much closer links with the unions. Do you know of any attempts that they have made to defend the position that was unanimously voted on to union colleagues, or friends that they may have in the unions, to take some of the heat out of this particular issue and ensure that London is protected without a strike?

• Question by: Darren Johnson
• Meeting date: 08 September 2010

On the Government cuts agenda, Chairman, as a right wing cost-cutting Conservative you have made -- Brian Coleman AM (Chairman, LFEPA): I am deeply grateful for that comment! Darren Johnson (AM): -- clear your enthusiasm for the Government's cuts agenda. Do you believe that 25% should apply to the Fire Authority, or should it be exempt?
